I RECENTLY READ that 92 percent of all New Year’s Resolutions are not kept. For mine it is probably worse. It stands to reason I would recognize the uselessness of continuing to make these promises…

On the contrary, I am more resolved than ever. I will make them over and over until I succeed regardless of the time of year. I don’t believe you can try too many times or that it is ever too late. My dad had a friend who graduated college and retired from the workforce on the same day. “Why bother?” you might wonder. I say, who cares “why” and good for her.

Whether you are 8 or 80, it’s January 1st or August 28th, Sunday or Thursday, your 1st attempt or your 1000th, never let someone talk you out of trying to better yourself, including you.
